You do misunderstand. Broadly speaking, Title IX prohibits colleges and universities that receive federal funds—which is pretty much all of them—from recognizing student organizations that discriminate on the basis of sex. There are a few exceptions to that general rule, including social fraternities and sororities.
Some non-social GLOs did indeed choose to go co-ed before they had to, or complied willingly with Title IX. Others did so reluctantly because they were required by law to go co-ed or risk losing school recognition.
